Arin Ninjago: Dragons Rising Novels & Stories

“Please, don’t put him in danger.” ‘Him. So the Dragon was a male salamander, then,’ Araheen thought. Aktaeon closed his eyes and lowered his head. Even as Nalini’s screams pierced the air, he remained silent. It went on for another hour, and Araheen endured the churning in her stomach as the relentless screams echoed around her. Her father had the guards place another set of Iron Maws on both salamanders, yet still, neither would reveal anything about the Dragon.

"I saw everything. Everything." "Do not work yourself out. What is it all about?" "A calm prelude before the tempest," she said, having a solemn expression staring ahead in the horizon passed the faces of all the inhabitants of Mars who regarded her in concern. She wasn't seeing them but the beast living in that very moment who will possibly cause the earth to be no more. That Vetrik Jihn Drakon, the red dragon in Rahu. The one in whom an Aryan princess shall face in the near future...

“Biel, if you know of any runes to turn us invisible, it is just this moment that you must summon the rune so we can lose them.” The wizard looked at me with a frown as he heard my request, but he did it. He drew a rune on each of us. At that moment I felt a sudden pain in my head, and my response was to send another surge of pure energy, a strong surge that made the earth shake. “Holy shit,” Connor said. “Let's get out of here,” Drago said, and he transformed into a large, dark dragon. “Come up, Nadine,” Aris requested, and I did so with difficulty, crawling up the dragon's scales.

We hear Ancalagon’s answering bellow and a few moments later, I can hear the wings of several dragons in the air. “What’s going on?” Keagan asks, fire lighting on his hand. I feel Ancalagon lower himself over top of us and I watch, enthralled as he lifts the fire off of Keagan’s hand and into the air, releasing it. “We don’t hurt others here,” he says to Keagan. “Who are you?” Keagan asks and I can hear the fear in his voice. “That’s Ancalagon, and I’m Kenzo. I’m an earth dragon like Avani and Amne here is a fire dragon, like you,” Kenzo says.

The Monster and the Flower. After he nodded, I began delivering the story, "Arden, the name of the snake dragon who is our novel's male lead. He is the most powerful dragon on Mount Tateyama, one of Japan's holiest mountains. Arden has the ability to shapeshift into a human form in order to deceive other civilizations and conquer it. After conquering those nations, he will turn the population into slaves and murder all who oppose him.

At first the dragon was creeping and then it began charging. “OK, Aki. Whatever you’re planning,” Temujin muttered nervously to himself, “you better do it now.” Nimble as a gazelle, Aki was running right behind the dragon and its twisting body. Then she was leaping from curl to curl, climbing efficiently up its length. Every time she landed on the slippery cerulean scales, her body flickered; distorted and spectral. Unbeknownst to her, she was partially activating the Kosoku Zanzo Jutsu, the Rapid Image Technique.

Aren said climbing behind Declan, Kayden got on last, and Layana stroked the dragons’ scales, “Take us to Jarabayn,” she said, the growl that rumbled from the dragon made her let out a squeak as he flapped his huge wings and soared into the sky, she clamped her eyes shut for a moment getting used to the heavy beating of its wings, it was not easy if it were not for Declan she would have fallen. “I think we just got ourselves an army,” Declan said a smirk on his face, “I don’t think it will listen,” she called back, as they soared over the mountains, the roaring wind howling in their ears, she could barely hear him above it!

A deep roar escapes my chest and the tornado suddenly catches on fire. “What the fuck?” Fujin starts to question. The tornado disappears and I land on the ground hard. Fujin falls right before my feet. He looks up and backs away. “How… How did you…???” He begins to question. I grab him by the throat, lifting him so that we see eye to eye. I’m not in control here but Drago is and I sense he’s about to do something very, very brutal. “Time to clear the air.” We say in unison. Fujin blows us away with his powers, which makes us fall on our backs. He begins to float with an angry expression on his face.

There were no fallen leaves on the ground and so their feet landed on soft grass, the noise padded. “Someone grabbed me back there,” Riyin said after he had swiped at his face. “That would be me. You almost got yourself killed.” What? Yisuf almost got him killed. “How do you mean, there was a clearing up ahead.” Yisuf sighed. “Yes, and you would have run straight into the Mahi Riders’ camp. The Mahi Riders? Who were those? Riyin had never heard of them before. Yisuf sensed the boy’s ignorance. “Did Thorn raise you in a cave? I hear dragons love to stay there where they can remain ancient and out of touch.”

Then it dawns on them, crisp and clear, they’ve lost the clasp-Amira’s hair claps made of musgravite stone. ~~~ A full grown red-winged beast flying through the airy womb of sky and gliding through the mountains high and low meets with two other humongous dragons, one that can easily be identified as a rock dragon with the semi-stones covering its entirety while the other one, a desert dragon dominated by Khaki and four sharp horns that curves up to it neck. With the direction they are navigating, one can tell they’re off to the Kingdom of Hauraya. “Can you explain to me what happened?” Douman, the sovereign among the gold dragons, demands answer from his youngest daughter, Alianah, who just
